Enjoying a heatwave, with temperatures touching 30°C. The temperature at Coldingham was comfortable with cloud early and a cool easterly sea breeze in the afternoon when the sun took over proceedings. However, the heatwave was causing problems with water temperature – think Gareth said it was 22°C. The fish were not doing much feeding, and…
Still enjoying the spell of warm weather. It was bright, calm at the start, with a welcoming cooling breeze – and even a bit of late cloud – towards the end of the afternoon. The bright sunshine brought out a collection of natty headgear – Trevor won the prize with his ‘extreme Beau Geste’. The…
